No, no gotchas. You need the Base component of the UNIX MTA as well as the
Gateway.
What UNIX versions will it work with?
I don't know if it works on V4, but it certainly runs on earlier versions. See
the SPD. We have it here on V3.2G and DECnet V3.2B.
Are there plans to support the smtp gateway for VMS?
There never have been up to now . . .
And finaly what is the role of Infobroker in this environment. I'm
relatively new to this product suite.
Infobroker allows an LDAP Client to communicate with X.500. It's not used by
the MTA, only runs on UNIX (it's used by Mailworks for UNIX for example) - I
suspect you don't have a need for it. The VMS UAs (ALL-IN-1, Mailworks) don't
use it.
